Yes... but, as Christian, we are born again into new creatures where "in Christ" there is equality between men and women. The power of the name of Jesus is just as powerfully used by women as by men.
Also, I quoted where there were women in authority in John... and here are others:
OT -
Judges 4:4 Now
Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lappidoth, judged Israel at that time. -
She ruled, prophesied, judged and taught
"Another female minister esteemed by Paul was Phoebe. In
Romans 16:1-2 Paul described Phoebe as both a diakonos and a prostatis. Kevin Giles writes:
The meaning of the last term has been much debated. In either its masculine or feminine form it means literally ‘one who stands before.’ This meaning is never lost whether it be translated leader, president, protector or patron . . . Its verbal form is proistanai (cf. Thess. 5:12;
1 Tim 5:17), a term used of male church leaders elsewhere in the New Testament.[11]
Prisca [Priscilla] is not the only woman associated with house church leadership. A surprising number of women are mentioned in this role. . . . In Acts we see Mark’s mother providing a home for the Christians to assemble (
Acts 12:12) and at Philippi we hear of believers meeting in the home of Lydia (
Acts 16:14-15,
40). Writing to the Colossians, Paul greets “Nympha and the church in her house” (
Col. 4:15). Perhaps Chloe is also the host of a home-church (
1 Cor. 1:11), as may have been some of the other women Paul greets in the last chapter of Romans.[19]"
So by virtue of what is written, you are mistaken
